Ruth,

I can't vouch for integrity of any VT slate roofing contractors. The people
behind the newsletter seem very well informed, up front & honest -- they are
NOT installers. They wrote a really good book on the subject of slate roofs,
they say, as a result of their networking with slate roofers back when they
themselves were slate roofers. Suggest whomever you look to get to do the
work you look into at least three references to their experience. Don't
forget to check 1) do they do good work and 2) do they do good business.
